INTRODUCTION<\/p>\n
Paddi Roberts has managed to find a balance. She has found a painless way to pursue both her vision as a freelance dance teacher and her fulltime career as a psychologist.<\/p>\n
All while maintaining an active social life. As a sole trader with a full-time career, time was of the essence. Ease was even better.<\/p>\n
With Paddi\u2019s various sources of income and her psychology business dealing with a range of suppliers, it was time consuming to keep track of it all. Paddi needed software she could trust to manage her finances well.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ admin_label=”The challenge” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ background_color=”#ffeeed” min_height_last_edited=”off|desktop” custom_margin_phone=”||-30px||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”off|desktop” custom_padding=”||||false|false” background_enable_image_phone=”off” da_disable_devices=”off|off|off” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}” da_is_popup=”off” da_exit_intent=”off” da_has_close=”on” da_alt_close=”off” da_dark_close=”off” da_not_modal=”on” da_is_singular=”off” da_with_loader=”off” da_has_shadow=”on”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ make_equal=”on” custom_padding_last_edited=”off|desktop” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ custom_padding=”||||false|false” custom_padding_tablet=”||40px||false|false” custom_padding_phone=”||40px||false|false” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_css_main_element=”margin-top:auto;||margin-bottom:auto;” pac_dcm_carousel_specific_module_num=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.27.4″ header_2_font_size=”32px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
THE CHALLENGE<\/p>\n
Paddi developed a love for dance in her youth, back in the 60\u2019s. After excelling in ballet, her competence and dedication was unquestionable. It was an experience that never left her, yet it became a dormant part of Paddi\u2019s life as she grew into her career as a psychologist.<\/p>\n
\u2018With my dancing\u2026 I had to leave that when I became a psychologist.\u201d<\/p>\n
Paddi\u2019s passion to start a side hustle as a dance instructor was stoked many years later, after being re-introduced to dance once more.<\/p>\n
But Paddi had a full-time job and precious time to spare. With a busy career and a social life to manage, how did she intend on tackling accounting tasks as painlessly as possible?<\/p>\n
With no intention of sacrificing other valuable avenues of her life, an ideal solution was necessary.[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.27.4″ custom_css_main_element=”margin-top:auto;||margin-bottom:auto;” pac_dcm_carousel_specific_module_num=”0″ global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.reckon.com\/au\/wp-content\/uploads\/Case-Studies\/paddi-roberts.png” alt=”Paddi Roberts profile image 1″ title_text=”Paddi Roberts” show_bottom_space=”off” align=”center” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” z_index=”1″ width=”177px” custom_margin=”||0px||false|false” custom_padding=”||0px||false|false” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][et_pb_testimonial author=”Paddi Roberts, psychologist and dance teacher” quote_icon=”off” _builder_version=”4.27.4″ _module_preset=”default” body_font=”|700|on||||||” body_text_align=”left” author_font=”||||||||” author_text_align=”left” background_color=”#FFFFFF” custom_margin=”-80px||||false|false” custom_padding=”100px|45px|30px|45px|false|true” custom_css_testimonial_author=”margin-top:8px;” border_radii=”off||40px|14px|40px” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n
\u201cThe online factor is definitely an advantage\u201d<\/p>\n
